“Absolutely love this place ! Stopped in for a quick bite while traveling out of Florida and the staff was absolutely amazing. The food was also great! Extremely welcoming staff and so attentive. Definitely will coming back next time im traveling through”

“Here for dinner on absolutely packed Saturday night. Callie (I’m assuming a food runner / hostess ) brought our food to us . Let me just say she was an absolute ray of sunshine . She was so kind in such a brief moment but it made a huge impact. She even went and got some things we needed when she didn’t have to and was back in what seemed like a flash . I love how she was so willing to jump in and be a big help to our server while he was so busy . 10/10 . Thank you Callie for making such a great impression in such a small moment of time”

“Amazing food and service. Tracy was a great server. The steak was seasoned perfectly. The sauteed spinach awesome. Highly recommend”

“Wonderful and fast friendly service. Great seating outside.”

“When we walked in the front door we were greeted by a young guy. He stood there and looked at us and told us a server would be with us soon. EXCUSE ME!!! I'm use to walking into a restaurant, being greeted and sat at a table by the one that greeted me, not have to wait on a busy waitress to stop waiting on her customers to come and get menus and seat us. Everything we order was very good, except the lobster tail, it was stuck to the shell and left a lot of meat in the shell that I had to leave or sit there and try to dig it out of the shell. The meat that did come out of the shell was very tough and rubbery as if it was severely over cooked. Sorry, but I'm not a fan of paying $20.00 for a lobster tail that's only maybe 3 or 4 ounces of meat. At that rate, that's $80 to $100 per pound for lobster tail! Which is utterly RIDICULOUS! Our waitress, was kind of half ass attentive! She was hit and miss! This was our first time eating here also. But, we're gonna give them another chance to do better about their serving staff.”

“My husband and I have never been here. Since it was our MeetAversary, we met 42 years ago that day, so we decided to try it. There are no words good enough to describe our experience. It was amazing, terrific, and stunning. It was just beautiful inside, we were greeted right away and taken care of. The staff was truly great, they were very friendly, prompt service, and our waitress was the BEST! We had the Texas Tonion, salad, steak & loaded baked potato..the best food and margaritas ever. That was the best date ever in a long time, of many other places.”

“We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Red Lobster today. We ate outside with our small dog Bella. It was a day to remember. We enjoyed an appetizer of scollops wrapped in bacon and a main course of Lobster tail shrimp scampi. The food was prepared to perfection. I give it the highest rating possible. Our server, Monica, was truly outstanding. She has a very positive welcoming attitude. She made us feel like honored guests. She helpful suggestions which enhanced our experience. At a time when restaurants are going out of business. I hope Red Lobster in Lake City does not meet this fate! The food is truly amazing!”

“The best cuban food out there! Don’t sleep on that pressed Cuban, the chicken meal, the steak meal or that champagne cola!!! I’m always so happy to see that open sign and can’t wait till the big restaurant is open! So many blessings!!”

“Our waitress Kathy kept drinks filled, the food coming for all you can eat. For being a party of 15, she kept everything straight. Always had a smile and let us know it was no problem. She acted like she enjoyed her job. We even came in on the worst day. Black Friday at 7:00p.m. would recommend.

Kid-friendliness: Treated the kids just like adults took care of their needs to make them feel welcome and happy .”

“I was in Live Oak and set up for the Strawberry Festival and decided to stay the evening and not drive back and forth. After the event it was time fo find some food. Well it took me a minute well maybe 40 minutes debating between Chinese and Pizza . We decided to enjoy Piesanos. They started me of with these delectable tasty rolls with butter, garlic and Italian Dressing. Definitely a winner. I ordered the Meat 🍖 Eaters Pizza 🍕 very tasty. Wood fire 🔥 good. I did make a small change. I had the Italian Sausage change to hes you guess it the Spicy 🌶 Italian. The services was awesome and Kristina was fantastic. The ambiance was smotha nd the music mellow. Great place for a date 📅 night 🌙 👌🏾. Kristina was so cool she hooked me up with a couple buns to go. If you like 👌🏾 Pizza 🍕 you will not be disappointed 😋.”

“It is a great place to just chill and not have a care in the world.”

“Absolutely amazing experience all around. The food came out good and hot and their buffalo each fries has my daughter begging for them daily! Not gonna lie, I’m pretty crazy about these simple fries too. Most of all, our Waitress was phenomenal!!!! She was very attentive, very enthusiastic, and not too much and definitely not too little. My daughter absolutely loves her and I watched her with other costumer’s and their kids and I could tell she made their kids feel just as great. After I spoke with her and complimented her and her kind nature, I went on to say how I could see her being absolutely amazing working in an environment with children. Her response, “I’m actually in college right now doing my co-Recs so hopefully I can get accepted into the nursing program and work in pediatrics. What??!! She definitely loves working with people so I see her going after a career that will definitely suite her best. She mentioned that’s just the first stop, so…. We all know college kids need a little extra cash especially nursing students, so I left her the tip she not only deserved, but a little extra for her books or whatever she needs. Ask for Kiara!!!! Kiara Fryer I believe she said. She is the only reason I am writing this review. I need service and food to be great before I actually write reviews, lol.”

“Had my sons birthday here absolutely awesome place! 100% recommend.”

“i been wanting to stop for months and finally got the garlic butter shrimp tray. absolutely 💯 hands down. staff friendly place clean will definitely go back”

“Hello wanted the owner to know we stopped in for dinner one night last Thursday, and we ordered a pizza and sub that was the best pizza and sub. The young man who made our pizza did a fantastic job and the older lady who made our sub she made it the way we wanted she was wonderful and polite. I have one complaint though the young girl I believe she is the dishwasher she was not polite and she almost knocked into me she had her white headphones on she probably didn’t see us walking to the trash can once she seen us she didn’t say anything. But that won’t stop us from coming back in to eat . Please keep your employees and ty for having the deli ❤️”

“It was our first time here and we definitely recommend. Food was amazing! My husband got the vegetarian burrito and I got arroz con pollo and both were delicious. We will certainly be back!”

“Suzie was our server and was awesome. great food”

“We had lunch today, and we noticed the bartender being a little rude to others, the servers were standing around talking, host was not at the front. With that said, our server was awesome (Lauren B) she was seating people, taking orders, and cleaning tables. I just hope management knows what a great worker they have in her. Not sure who or where the manager was but they need to do a better job.”

“Stopped in to Lake City CB 10 days ago. A refreshing stop on the road returning home to central FL from a wonderful trip to the Smokies. The New York Strip steak was cooked to perfection. Cheyenne, our server, was attentive, kind, and friendly--an excellent employee. I (Dave) am glad I can order gluten-free entrees from your menu, as I have that kind of food allergy/intolerance. I must admit that I envy my wife who can enjoy your biscuits and corn muffins! We'll be back!”

Our drinks never ran out! 2. The choices of meats and vegetables satisfied all palates. 3. Fresh salad ingredients. 4. Then, the desserts!! It was a great experience.”

“This is a fun little bar. Kind of off the beaten Trail but nice inside. Plenty of pool tables. They have a jukebox you can play. Bartender was friendly. All sorts of different types of beer and wine and whiskey whatever you wanted.”

“Friendly servers and great food.”

“This Waffle House is awesome! We were greeted by friendly employees as we entered the clean restaurant. Susan was an excellent server and provided us with top-notch service. She took our order accurately and made sure we had everything we needed for our breakfast. Shannon cooked us wonderful scrambled eggs with cheese, fluffy waffles, golden hashbrowns, and crisp bacon. If you are looking for delicious food in an inviting atmosphere, I recommend his Waffle House in Lake City.”

“the Chinese food was excellent and would get the tacos again”

“Went today for lunch with a friend and had a great experience! Kelsey (sorry if I am misspelling) helped me find food that was dairy free, and then went above and beyond making me the new Love Potion Chiller Dairy Free (normally when I go other places and get a drink like this, they won't make it dairy free), and it was absolutely delicious! Kelsey is the absolute best!!”

“the Chinese food was excellent and would get the tacos again”

“Really tender and tasty Pulled Pork sandwich. Came with a bag of chips and I purchased a large sweet tea and side baked beans. Cash only $15 bucks. Well worth it. I’ll be back.”

“Awesome BBQ, Awesome people!! Pork sandwich got some heft to it!! 😝”

“This is my daughter's favorite fast food place to eat! She is a little petit thing but she orders a 12 piece nugget and vanilla shake when we go and finishes it! The chicken is just that good! Service is always good!”

“A preacher, a cop, and A HR Director all walk into a BBQ joint….
I’m not from around these parts but I found the whole town here when I stopped by for a quick bite. The sliced pork was delicious, the sauces were on point, the beans were perfectly flavored and don’t even get me started on that garlic bread. Despite the place being packed out, service was quick and I was back on the road.

PS, I’m the HR director in this story”

“Saw the sign on the window that said pretzel crust pizza is back. Because of that I pulled into the strip mall and marched my way inside only to find out there wouldn't be any pretzel crust pizza until Thursday (2 days away) Ended up getting a Detroit style pizza and it was good.”

“Went today for lunch with a friend and had a great experience! Kelsey (sorry if I am misspelling) helped me find food that was dairy free, and then went above and beyond making me the new Love Potion Chiller Dairy Free (normally when I go other places and get a drink like this, they won't make it dairy free), and it was absolutely delicious! Kelsey is the absolute best!!”

“clean and great service. made to order fresh burger and real fresh cut fries. free peanuts!!! whoever knew? first time here, pricey but great quality and quantity. we were pleased.”

“There is a Subway on West US HWY90, less than a mile from my home, but they don't accept some.of the coupons/discounts that are offered online. They also don't include the BMT sandwich when the BOGO $12.99 coupon is offered. So I drive another 4+ miles to this Subway on Rt47 near the I-75 interchange when we want Subway. People are friendlier at this Subway, too.”

“For the most part their prices are cheaper than going to your local supermarket however sometimes they do not have the supply that they should and it's not their fault.”

“In my opinion this is one of the better Chinese spots in lake City.
I used to eat at (Yums) all the time (they're in the publix shopping center) until I read about the health inspector going around checking the restaurants and yums made the top 10 for most health violations. Btw this was less than 2 weeks ago (today is the 6th of August)
This place is perfect 😁 it's reasonably priced. it's family-owned. the people there are super nice and your food can be ready in like 15 minutes and they have a super easy app you can use and everything works perfectly please give this place a try 😁🤜🤛
Support your local businesses
Be nice to somebody it's easier 😉

Owner: just a suggestion and courtesy note to you...
You have to make sure that dishes like generalTao's chicken that the chicken is crispy fried and you have to put lots of sauce on top of the chicken the folks like lots of sauce and they like their chicken to be crispy if you do that I think it's going to improve your business a whole lot 🤜🤛😁
Please take this advice. I just ordered from you last night. I'm going to order from you here in a couple of weeks. I'll order the general Tao's chicken again to see if you've taken heed to my comments, and I will post a review to see how you've updated, thank you!”

“Best pizza in FL, clean store great customer service.”

“Great place very pleased”

“The restaurant is very clean and the tables are comfortable but the decor is a bit dated and the interior feels like you stepped back to the 80's. The food took a bit to get out and it was decent for the money but nothing to make you wanna come back unless you have a strong desire for deep fried shrimp and fish. The hush puppies were surprisingly moist and well done. Usually they are dry and hard. The shrimps are cooked to completion but the near carboard texture of the breading takes away from the taste. The shrimp has been in a freezer for a while which causes the meat to get tough after you cook it. The fish was much better but one side was a bit dark. About 20 seconds less in the fryer and it would have been perfect. The drinks are a bit warm out of the fountain so use the pound of ice they put in the cup for you, you'll need it. They stayed pretty consistent but no heavy lunch mob to overwhelm the one counter person they had operating the entire front. Parking is free and plentiful so no need to fret about finding a spot. The bathrooms are clean just as the rest of the restaurant appears. The staff is doing a good job keeping things clean and pretty but the food is getting smaller and freshness has left the building. For a quick meal to satiate a seafood craving they will do the trick but it's not a high quality restaurant and they don't try to be one.”

“Enjoying the ambiance of the resto and the food are nitritious and delicious.”

“We had Vanessa today great service was always making sure our drinks were filled food was amazing and very hot and got to our table in a reasonable time lake city location is great we will definitely be back”

“Customer service was phenomenal. Michael and another girl ( sorry didnt get your name) at the counter working late around 11 pm tonight were so kind. Thank you guys, Happy new years. Rare customer service here.”

“Talk about YUM. The name says it all. I will be back here many times. They have Chinese food that I have not seen in years.The food was so hot, it burnt my mouth. You only get that with made fresh food.The flavor was as it sould be in Chinese food. All over the place, but complementing each taste individually.The pint of Won Ton Soup had NINE large won tons in it and the broth was perfect. Just enough grease to help everything go down easy.I also had the Hot and Spicy Beef and Vegetables. It was perfect. Comes with rice and an egg roll.The server was the owners daughter. She was sweet and has a great personality.The atmosphere is Chinese. Slight music in the background and Chinese decor.All in all this place is excellent and I highly recommend it.”

“Great place to go! Some of my friends are not drinkers and they like it there. Always something going on. Trivia is always fun. Our Jeep club go often”

“Many of us have noticed how well the employees at the HARDEES on highway 90 near Walmart, have handled the customers on a daily basis, but since many more than the usual amount have been going, because of Irma, they have remembered their basic good manners as well as showing they have caring hearts. Good job ladies and gentlemen. As soon as we see Debbie Nydan, I will make sure she is told what an awesome jog you have done. THANKYOU for all you do for all of us your fans! �� Copied from my mom's timeline. Just thought some good news was worth repeating. She always finds the good in everyone. �”

“Team members are so friendly. They greet me every morning by name and know my order by heart. I appreciate this service first thing in the morning. Starts my day off right!”

The lady at the window was very polite nice And smiled the old time. I got my food and everything was correct and it was all very fresh and hot and tasted great. Even the Dr. Pepper was extra Amazing. Overall the lunch was amazing very hard to get at a fast food place especially in Lake City. 10 out of 10 Thank you”

“Great food but Awesome customer service!!! Very helpful hostess!!! Dry pleasant and friendly!!”

“Our server Kat was awesome . Very polite and courteous. Thank you”

“Verry good foods and excellent service”

“I went because of good reviews of their fish sandwich and was not disappointed. It was fantastic, and the fish patty was huge, crispy, and delicious. I visited some years ago and had their burger and was not impressed, but the fish sandwich more than makes up for it.”

“Billy ray here, I got a good ol’ chicken sandwich and large fry and a chicken wrap thing. The chicken sandwich was delicious! Better than Wendy’s. I know what good food is and that was so delicious!! Fries was hot and crispy, chicken sandwich was nice and cooked to perfection, the wrap was alright just a good ol’ regular chicken wrap nothing special. Only one lady was working!! Good job to her.”
